YOBY for Kids

Welcome to YOBY, a playful world where kids choose their duck, explore ponds, meet mentor characters, collect shells, seeds and stars, and learn money habits through adventure.

YOBY for Kids

Welcome to your pond.

In YOBY, you have your own duck, your own pond and a whole world to explore.

You can meet funny characters, complete little quests, collect shells, seeds and stars, visit Tuesday’s market and help your family pond grow.

You do not need to be a money expert.

You only need curiosity, a duck and maybe a good pair of tiny adventure boots.


Choose your duck

Every adventure starts with a duck.

In YOBY, you can choose your duck and make it feel like yours. Pick its look, customise it and let it become your little explorer in the pond.

Your duck can complete quests, collect treasures, meet characters and grow with you.

It is not just an avatar.
It is your pond-side companion.


Explore the YOBY world

YOBY is full of places to discover.

There are peaceful ponds, secret paths, little streams, floating goals in the sky and underground places where the Mole knows things nobody else noticed.

Some places help you learn about saving.
Some places help you make choices.
Some places show you hidden costs.
Some places are just waiting for you to find something shiny, strange or useful.

The world changes as you play.

Tiny steps. Big pond.


Complete quests

In YOBY, characters give you short quests.

A quest can be a question, a choice or a small challenge.

Maybe you need to decide whether to spend now or save for later.
Maybe you need to choose between something shiny and something useful.
Maybe you need to help your duck reach a goal one step at a time.

There are no scary tests.
No red marks.
No boring lessons hiding behind a moustache.

You choose, you see what happens, and you learn.


Collect shells, seeds and stars

As you play, you can collect special symbolic treasures.

Shells help you see what you earn and use.
Seeds help you grow good habits.
Stars show progress, effort and bright little victories.

They are not real money.
They are part of the game.

But they help you understand real ideas: saving, waiting, choosing, sharing and growing.


Meet the characters

The YOBY world is full of mentors and odd little experts.

The Frog

The Frog helps you reach your goals one jump at a time.

Big goals can feel far away.
The Frog knows that every jump counts.

The Magpie

The Magpie loves shiny things.

Sometimes shiny things are wonderful.
Sometimes they are distractions wearing glitter.

The Magpie helps you choose.

The Mole

The Mole lives underground and knows about hidden costs.

The price you see is not always the whole story.
The Mole knows what is hiding under the roots.

The Wise Duck

The Wise Duck thinks before acting.

She helps you pause, breathe and decide with care.

A wise duck does not rush into every puddle just because it sparkles.


Visit Tuesday’s market with Loris

Every Tuesday, Loris arrives by boat at the Adventure Pond.

At the market, you can buy, sell and negotiate.

You can discover that prices can change, that objects have different value for different people and that choosing well is sometimes better than choosing fast.

Loris may look friendly.

Loris also knows how to bargain.

Bring your eyes, your brain and maybe a very serious duck face.


Find fragments in the streams

In YOBY, little fragments can appear in the streams.

Collect them to complete collections, unlock discoveries and make your pond feel more alive.

Some fragments may be easy to find.
Some may need patience.
Some may appear when you least expect them.

The streams remember careful explorers.


Build your family pond

YOBY is not only your adventure.

It is also your family pond.

You can build it with mum, dad or the adults who take care of you. Everyone can have their own duck. Everyone can complete quests. Everyone can help the pond grow.

You can learn together.
You can talk about choices together.
You can celebrate small victories together.

Money does not have to be a secret grown-up thing.

In YOBY, it becomes something your family can explore.


What you learn while playing

In YOBY, you learn useful things without sitting through a boring lesson.

You learn that:

Saving means keeping something for later.

Goals help you know where you are going.

Choices matter, even small ones.

Waiting can make a reward feel bigger.

Value is not always the same as price.

Hidden costs can sneak under things like tiny pond goblins.

Sharing can help the whole family grow.

You play.
You choose.
You learn.
Then you come back tomorrow.

That is how habits grow.


A safe pond

YOBY is made for children.

Only people invited by your parent or guardian can enter your family pond.

You cannot be contacted by strangers.
You cannot start videochat without an adult present.
Your parent or guardian helps manage the pond.

Adventure is fun.
Safe adventure is better.


Ready to start?

Pick your duck.
Enter the pond.
Meet the Frog, the Magpie, the Mole and the Wise Duck.

The water is bright.
The quests are waiting.
Loris may already be polishing his market boat.
